Jaysus Kazbah, you seem pretty loaded to me for a 26yo!!I'm certainly not loaded! I'm 26. For the first couple of years out of college I spent every penny I earned but stayed out of debt. I have an average IT salary and I've started to save since the SSIA was launched plus extra regular savings. I've also started to dabble in the Rabo Investment Funds. All in all I probably have €25-30K in savings

single person as 40k is enough to satisfy all basic needs and to have an active social life.the report also says that material goods like a sports car initially make us happy but we rapidly get used to it and after a short while it just becomes normal and does nothing for us
